3 Pre-MBA resources that will lead you to your soul mate!

The pre – MBA dating game can be tough. There are a plethora of options and every school appears to offer attractive benefits on the face of the website. How do you choose the best school for you? These 3 pre-MBA resources will not only give you a chance to go on multiple dates with the most elite business school institutions, but will also provide you with MBA relationship counselors who will help you to determine the best business mate for your soul!

1)  MLT MBA Prep

Have you heard of Management Leaders for Tomorrow? It’s the ultimate match.com program of the business school world. Admission to the MLT MBA Prep program is extremely selective and will allow you to network with some of the most talented young leaders in America. But don’t be intimidated by the acceptance numbers. Be hopeful and give the application all you got. What’s the worst that could happen?  This selective enrollment process can work in your favor. Think about it. You’ve spent most of your professional life in the office with your colleagues. That means you have had limited opportunities to date unless you make the special effort to engage in the dating search and interview process after work hours or during the weekend. But that takes time! Who has that amount of time when they are trying to be on the cover of Forbes magazine as one of the wealthiest game changers of the 21^st century?  Not I. So MLT does the work for you! They have identified the most promising and collaborative leaders who are committed to rising to the C-suite and opening doors for those behind them. Does that sound like the man or woman of your dreams? If so, thank MLT for the thorough selection process. I'm glad to say that I have witnessed an MLT born pre-MBA relationship turn into a marriage within a year! But please don't be led astray by my words of romance and finance. This is not about you finding your dream man or woman. That WILL happen. No need to worry about that. It's about exploring a program that will allow you to release the best of you so that you can attract the best that life has to offer. How does that sound? Nothing beats the feeling of falling in love with who you are and who you can become. 

MLT provides high-potential underrepresented minorities with a winning professional playbook, one-on-one coaching and door opening relationships to accelerate their career paths to the highest levels.  The MBA Prep Program works! Check out the success rates:

·      98% of MLT’s MBA Prep fellows attend a top 25 business school (80% attend a Top 10 school)

·      MBA admission rates at the top ten business schools are three times greater for MLT’s MBA Prep Fellows than the schools’ applicant pool overall

·      40% of the Blacks, Hispanics, and Native Americans at Harvard Business School, Wharton, Kellogg and Columbia are MLTers.

Fun Fact: John Legend created the MLT Career Prep Program before his singing career took off.

2)  Forte MBA Launch

Sorry Guys. Forte is only for the ladies. But here is the good news! If you want to impress that special lady in your life who is seeking to advance her career by pursuing an MBA, let her know about Forte and she will fall in LOVE with you! If she doesn’t, I will not be personally liable. Remember, I am Ms. Corporate America and not Ms. Love America.

Forte MBA Launch for Women provides guidance, resources, and ongoing feedback on the business school application process including a one-day launch event, monthly webinars, peer group meetings, and feedback from experienced advisors.

The DMAC Conference is an annual event in Los Angeles that connects talented diverse, underrepresented and underserved candidates who wish to pursue a degree in business with Admissions Directors at top – tier business school. The conference allows attendees to interact directly with MBA Admissions Directors from the country’s top business schools, learn about the MBA Admissions process and the relative strengths of the attending business school’s curriculum and student culture. The conference has continually helped connect and place participants with top – tier MBA programs.

The Advantages of Attending DMAC

I had the pleasure of taking advantage of all three of these pre-MBA resources when I was applying to business school. If you have any questions about the above resources, feel free to comment below.  If you are not eligible for any of the opportunities listed above, the list of resources does not stop here. Remember, there are multiple ways to find your soul mate. Be open, don’t judge a book by it’s cover, and trust your heart. The hardest thing for ambitious pre-MBA candidates to do is to follow your heart instead of following the crowd. Follow your heart all the way to the school of your dreams!
